I hear what you're saying though.

You are right in one sense but there are many misdiagnoses of psychiatric problems when some contribute to physical brain problems or other things like allergies. NOT saying these are makn reasons though.
On another note though - the current psychiatric medical model for Schizophrenia says there is physical brain abnormalities. Though not everyone has these abnormalities who has Schizophrenia, some do. Not sure the percentage though. Some research suggests long term Antipsychotic use may also reduce grey matter in the brain that can be picked up on a scan.
